The conference is being held at the University of Ottawa. Accommodation and meals
are available
on campus
as well as at hotels and nearby establishments, all within a short walking distance.
More information is available on our U of O Campus page.

All prices are in CAD$ and do not include taxes of 14%.

We recommend arriving the day before your first activity and leaving late on Friday afternoon.
We are planning post-PGCon events on the Friday following the main event.

If you are flying in, you may wish to consider flying into Montreal and then taking
the 2 hour train to Ottawa for about CAD$70.
The train station is about 3.5km (or 5-10 minutes) by car from the University
(we advise against walking this route, which is along major highways).

You can also take the bus from Montreal (the airport code is YUL) to Ottawa.
The bus stop is just outside the arrivals exit from the terminal.
Go to bus (navette) stop number 5, which is 20 meters to your left.
To confirm you are in the right place, you can ask
the representative in the yellow booth just outside
the main exits. It should be CAD$30 one-way to Ottawa for adults and
CAD$23 students. NOTE: some buses will stop at University of Ottawa.
Ask your driver. It may save you cab fare.

Flying into Ottawa

The Ottawa airport (YOW) has many connecting flights from both Montreal (YUL)
and Toronto (YYZ).

If flying into Ottawa (YOW), the airport is about 20 minutes, by car, from the University.

Many BSDCan attendees recommend the #97 bus which take you right to the University for only $2.60. You can buy
tickets from the Information counter on the ground floor. The bus does not give
change.

A taxi will be about CAD$25.

Arriving by bus

Bus? The Greyhound bus station is about 4km from the train station. You can catch a cab.
